And when I'm in pain, it's hard to concentrate on riding the motorcycle. The best part about motorcycling to me is the journey, not the destination. So why get to my destination quickly, but sore as all hell? With the Vaquero, I just lean back, set the cruise, crank the tunes, and enjoy the ride. No better feeling :)
Totally agree, My buddy always wants to take the shortcut to everywhere, I on the other hand take 4 hours to get milk..lol

Bought my first Motorcycle in 1966 (as I recall)....I'll turn age 26 in January (as I recall)

And I agree..It's The Ride...not the destination !

I just turned 30 and I started out on cruiser style bikes at 15. I got a 1968 Honda 300 Dream that I didn't actually ride until I turned 16, because it took me a year to restore it and source parts! Engine was locked up, it was a rusted mess. Parents didn't think I'd ever get it going. If any of you guys recall, the Dream had big full fenders on it. I've briefly owned/ridden several styles of bikes, but I've always owned cruisers long-term. This is my first Kaw and I really dig it. Like you guys said, nothing like just kicking back and cruising on down the road in comfort.
